RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Radiotherapy is a critical treatment modality for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). However, the mechanisms underlying radiation resistance and tumour recurrence in NPC remain incompletely understood. METHODS: Oxidised lipids were assessed through targeted metabolomics. Ferroptosis levels were evaluated using cell viability, clonogenic survival, lipid peroxidation, and transmission electron microscopy. We investigated the biological functions of glutathione S-transferase mu 3 (GSTM3) in cell lines and xenograft tumours. Co-immunoprecipitation, mass spectrometry, and immunofluorescence were conducted to explore the molecular mechanisms involving GSTM3. Immunohistochemistry was performed to investigate the clinical characteristics of GSTM3. RESULTS: Ionising radiation (IR) promoted lipid peroxidation and induced ferroptosis in NPC cells. GSTM3 was upregulated following IR exposure and correlated with IR-induced ferroptosis, enhancing NPC radiosensitivity in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, GSTM3 stabilised ubiquitin-specific peptidase 14 (USP14), thereby inhibiting the ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of fatty acid synthase (FASN). Additionally, GSTM3 interacted with glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) and suppressed GPX4 expression. Combining IR treatment with ferroptosis inducers synergistically improved NPC radiosensitivity and suppressed tumour growth. Notably, a decrease in GSTM3 abundance predicted tumour relapse and poor prognosis. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings elucidate the pivotal role of GSTM3 in IR-induced ferroptosis, offering strategies for the treatment of radiation-resistant or recurrent NPC.

RESUMO

Skin cutaneous melanoma (SKCM) is a highly malignant and aggressive cancer. Previous studies have shown that cellular senescence is a promising therapeutic strategy to limit melanoma cell progression. However, models to predict the prognosis of melanoma based on senescence-related lncRNAs and the efficacy of immune checkpoint therapy remain undefined. In this study, we developed a predictive signature consisting of four senescence-related lncRNAs (AC009495.2, U62317.1, AATBC, MIR205HG), and we then classified patients into high- and low-risk groups. GSEA (Gene set enrichment analysis) showed different activation of immune-related pathways in two groups. In addition, there were significant differences between the scores of tumor immune microenvironment, tumor burden mutation, immune checkpoint expression, and chemotherapeutic drug sensitivity between the two groups of patients. It provides new insights to guide more personalized treatment for patients with SKCM.
